Once they left the village, they might never have the chance to see such a beautiful night sky again.
The following morning, Gareth woke up early and dressed up to join the warriors' tournament.
However, he realized he could not open the door.
Mrs. Kella appeared in the yard and looked strangely calm. She said evenly, "Don't waste your energy. I've locked
the door, and the key is with me."
Elisa frowned and turned to her, wanting to ask why she did this.
Mrs. Kella sighed. "I know you two haven't given up and still wish to join the warriors' tournament. However, it's too
dangerous. Furthermore, Nomadic Odyssey is linked to our village's fortune. I can't let you take it from us."
"The registration for the warriors' tournament will end by noon. You two will stay here and keep me company until
then."
Elisa had predicted Mrs. Kella would try to stop them but did not expect her to take such an extreme measure.
The disappointment in Elisa's eyes likely saddened Mrs. Kella. She could not resist explaining, "You can get angry
and hate me, but this is for your good. Since you have come here, why not settle here permanently? I know there
are issues with Sodo and Anna, but I'm respected in this village. No one can force you to be with them if you're
unwilling."
Mrs. Kella tried hard to persuade them to stay.
Elisa was not surprised or thought her words were absurd. She had expected this.
She replied calmly, "Mrs. Kella, would you be worried if Sodo disappeared?"
Mrs. Kella opened her mouth but could not bring herself to speak.
She knew what Elisa meant.
On the other hand, Elisa was not bothered by her lack of response and continued, "Even though Sodo caused much
trouble, he's still your grandson and your flesh and blood. Therefore, you would be anxious if he were missing and
would do everything to find him. Mrs. Kella, our friends and families are waiting for us…"
Mrs. Kella stared at Elisa. Sadness and unwillingness warred within her eyes.
"Mrs. Kella, the truth is Gareth and I are married. Our grandmother is waiting for us to come home. At the moment,
she doesn't know whether we are alive… Grandma is weak and sickly. I fear she would collapse from worry."
Elisa choked slightly as she spoke.
It was not an act to persuade Mrs. Kella. She was voicing the concerns she had hidden within her all this while.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGareth had been listening quietly beside her and tentatively held her hand.
Elisa did not try to break free this time.
Gareth was pleased and squeezed her hand to comfort her.
He was also thinking about his grandmother.
He could only imagine how sad and helpless his grandmother would feel after discovering that he and Elisa had
fallen into the sea.
Mrs. Kella's gaze flickered with uncertainty. She hastily looked away.
Elisa knew her words had moved Mrs. Kella's heart.
Mrs. Kella had a good heart. Otherwise, she would never have saved them.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Kella lived in a secluded society all her life. It made her ignorant, close-minded, and cling to
useless traditions.
However, she had a conscience. Elisa did not doubt that.
Thus, Elisa wanted to awaken it to their cause.
She stood at the doorway with Gareth. Although she looked smaller in comparison, she had an aura that made her
seem strong and mighty.
Furthermore, she stood straight and refused to give up.
She wagered in her heart that she could make Mrs. Kella change her mind.
